Can I delete contents from the Downloaded Installations folder?

Question

I've been trying to clear the storage of my G15 5515 from useless files and i noticed this folder takes almost 10 GB of space.

I've checked all folders and all of them contain an Alienware Command Center Suite.msi file. Is it safe to delete all of them or should I leave it be?

Thanks in advance!

I believe they are part of a dell system update package, I believe it has to do mainly with Dell Mobile Connect which is fficially no longer supposed to be installed (according to Dell, it doesn't seem to have major problems, just a few things are weird), so you may lose Dell Mobile Connect also. I'm considering doing this myself as I'm having a time getting anything but AWCC (Alienware Command Center) from like 5 updates ago to install successfully, and after installed it shows the starting logo, then never starts up. Well good luck to the both of us eh? lol IF either of us find a solution please come back here and share! There's very little on this topic that isn't like the same few things everyone's saying.

Just did a quick bit of research into the above problem. While I don't know precisely what each copy of the AWCC.msi does, I can confirm that I went ahead and deleted all the excess copies of the program from 2020-2022 (the most recent on my laptop being from 2023) that had been stacking up in the Downloaded Installations folder without my knowledge, and so far everything seems to be working perfectly fine in my system. I managed to clear up 8GB of space in my OSC :)
